In short: it was the world's largest staring contest.
Lol nice
Scariest staring contest to be precise.
until khrushchev blinked
LOL true
Lol
Watching this a day before the cold war GCSE paper
Good luck everyone
ElliotLindley sameee
ElliotLindley I’ve learnt more in 9 minutes than I have at school in 5 weeks of doing Cold War.
@@magdamajerczuk1342 Same.
Gl
same
Learnt more here than I did in a whole 2 years with my teacher
Why were you doing 2 years on the Cold War kid
Kxloux because I do history
Atleast your class taught you histoiries of wars around the globe. I dunno if i'm just unlucky but my all my history class only focused on the history of our country didn't even mention cold war, hitler, stalin, and etc.
I agree
Ben, this is your teacher. I want you to know you're a punk ass bitch and you'll never find love.
8:49 “Some historians reckon that this brought an end to history.”
*2020 has entered the chat*
Yes lol, now we're definitely opening a new chapter in the history of mankind.
even worse in 2022 lmao
Ukraine war, would like to have a chat.
@@jamieparsley978 yep ukraine 😭
Nothing historical happened in 2020😂
Fun Fact: The USSR putting nuclear missiles into cuba was actually the reaction of the US putting missiles into turkey
that's right
+Tristan Möller I paused the video just for comment exactly the same.
Drake Dangereux Other important fact is the CIA corrupting the legal elections in Italy, where the Communist party had had high chances of gaining power through vote.
Also: When the USSR claimed they removed the missiles, they secretly left 100 TACTICAL Nuclear Missiles (smaller, for defence purposes)
They later withdrew them too since they didn't trust Cuba.
"yes but......the USSR probably thought of deploying missiles first anyways, so it's their fault!"
- Uncle Sam
This 9 minutes Video is equivalent 1-2 week class
So true
it actually will help me pass a semester long exam lol
It must have been a shitty class. This video does a great job at summarizing the whole affair (it really does), but in the end it merely scratches the surface - which is fine, it does not put down the video, rather the class you talk about.
@@OrixDalgrath This is everything schools want you to know about The Cold War for History class (where I live atleast), and this is what you need to know for the tests. This would equal a month or 2 worth of class, with the lessons involving video's and sources relevant to the subject, but not really adding more information.
And then there's our teacher.. Missing all the time and doing nothing when she is not "ill" for a change. We literally write a test about the Potsdam Conference, only about that. I don't know how detailed you can deal with that topic, but I think we are only scratching it
School: like, 5 weeks
This video: 9 minutes
Edit: stop liking this isn't even funny
@@MathiasChris I agree with you mate, but i would for you to explain more. What do you mean by tricked, as in i know how the people in power do it but what is their motives and what do they trick us into? If you respond that would be much appreciated.
It took us a year to cover this one topic and I learnt nothing 😂

Everyone knows the real Cold War was between polar bears and penguins. Took a while for them to get to each other and while they were on the way toward each other, a lot of them died. The polar bears met the penguins around Mauritania, Africa and they had quite a fight. Being smaller, the penguins knew they’d need to have more fighters than the polar bears. The polar bears had almost 5,000, and the penguins had around 17,000. Although the penguins had far more fighters, the polar bears were still bigger, stronger, and were beating the penguins like crazy, so the penguins improvised and made cannons, with big barriers all around them. This helped them a lot and started to kill a lot of the polar bears. The penguins then came in with a big B-52 and dropped lots of bombs. The penguins were able to win because of this, but although they started out with around 17,000 fighters, they ended with only about 600. It still goes down as one of the saddest days in animal history. Because of their bravery, we can now have these animals in our zoos because their war was settled and we no longer have to fear that the penguins will try to kill the polar bears or vice versa. Some zoo keepers though are still afraid that the polar bears will want to get back at the penguins. There are also some who have said that four penguins escaped, went to Madagascar by plane, then went to Africa, and then they stopped an evil octopus from making all penguins bad.
Thank you for your history lesson
Yeah, it was one of the saddest days in history. My history teacher tried to cover it up and say it never happened. She even went as far as to say I was “crazy for actually thinking that” and that I “needed to go to a psych ward”. But I won’t let their fight be forgotten. The lives that were lost so Santa’s elves could have freedom and the penguins could also have magic to be able to fly a sleigh. The penguins got to once when Santa landed in Madagascar and a lion, hippo, giraffe, and zebra had to take Santa’s place and deliver presents. That was all the penguins wanted.
I need an analysis on how factual this is... KOWALSKI!!
Finally someone spreading the truth.

My education lacked in the history department and I frequently feel embarrassed by it. Your video taught me so much in just 10 minutes. Really appreciate your summary. 🙏
i think the cold war lasted about fifty years not nine minutes
I really hope you're joking.
Alexander Tawa of course
+Alexander Tawa of course he is joking lol
David Harrison my comment was also kind of sarcastic.
+Alexander Tawa Tbf mate it's hard to tell that over the internet in all honesty but that's cool
This morning, I said to myself: "Damn, I'm going to have to learn 3 years of History in 24 hours!" Then I realised that I can learn it in 9mins with this video instead :D
Dude your drawings and explanations are awesome. But can you just slow down a bit or add subtitles at least? Because it is kinda hard for people that doesn't know English as native language like me to understand.
Yasin Tüfekçi
Excuse me, but did you know this video was posted and made in 2014.
You should comment this on a more recent video
You may be right but in general this video is very educative about Cold War and it would be pretty usefull if he add subtitles am i wrong? :D
I agree with you he should slow down i am not a native english speaker too
In the corner of the screen on the computer format of the video, there's the CC button for subtitles. They're not the most accurate but it might help a little.
I speak native English and I still have troubles understanding him. O.O
anyone else here as last minute revision for the exam tomorrow??

*Life* *Fact:* When my Pops was in his early-20s in 1974-5, he received his draft into the Vietnam War. But then the next day, word spread that the war had officially ended, basically saving his own life. He says he is grateful he didn't go, cause he was afraid he wouldn't have survived out there.
And this is why when I was growing up in the 2000s, he'd *_forbidden_* me from enlisting into the Army, cause he didn't want me to die in a war thousands of miles away from home. He'd even threatened to shoot me himself if I enlisted.
So his way of preventing you from going over to a war where you might die, was to shoot you? No offense against your family but your pop has very faulty logic.
Patton528 Of course, he and I both knew he was joking, I think he just wanted to hit his point home to me, that and I was heading into my teens when he told me that.
how would America have profited in oil in the middle east... charge over and seize oil rigs and man them with workers to ship oil to the states? it doesn't work like that. nothing works like that. we went over there to remove regimes that were funding terrorism against the United states and it's allies. I'd go back again if I could. did a lot of good for people's rights in the districts I was in. no way to see if it stuck after I left, but we changed ideals for a lot of people when we finally got through to them we weren't there to pillage like the soviets did. the ones that kept fighting us were all foreign Pakistani taliban fighters the local villages wanted outsted

3:35 why does everybody forget about the first landing on Venus by the Soviets? I'm not biased towards the USSR but it's still a very important achievement.
Onam King wut ?
Onam King what
coolcosmos.ipac.caltech.edu/ask/44-Has-a-spacecraft-ever-landed-on-Venus-
i did some research
Probably because they weren't the first to space.
Leon. J They were the first to space. The Soviets launched the first satellite into orbit and sent the first man into space.
lol at 8:19, romania is sad cause they had to their revollution unpeacefully lol
What happened to Romania??
@@astrobookwormsinger a bloody revolution with a lot of dearhs.
@@transylvanianmapper8563 Oh. Why have I never heard of it before? Thanks though
@@astrobookwormsinger you should definetly check it out, it's one of the most controversial parts in Romanian history
@@Petruscovici Yeah, will definitely do. It's interesting enough. Thanks :)
The soviets reached the moon first. The USA got the first *man* to the moon. The soviets were the first to get to the moon. The Soviets had the first sattelite, first animal in space, first man in space, first orbit, and first lunar landing. USA has first man on the moon... and that's it.
still more significant than all those
Alan833Gaming The USA sure seemed to think so. We had a single, centrally planned, government run agency devoted to the task, and we ramped up spending up to the our moon landing, then ramped it down again afterwards. The Soviets, on the other hand, had a whole bunch of independent competing organizations all competing for funding, with no overall central plan, so they didn't seem to care as much. Though the structures each side used are ironic considering the larger scope of the debate around which the cold war was structured.
The soviet also landed probes on venus..
magnusorion0 The U.S also had the first successful probe on mars, first to reach Mercury, first to reach escape velocity and interstellar space. So it kinda balances itself out
Quantum Tunneller well, by then the Soviets/Russians had completely gutted their space program. Even now its a shell of its former self. The USA wasn't so much winning the space race as taking a victory lap at that point.
0:35 "Major, the cobra unit have trapped me in some sort of... drawing."
Funny how historians couldn't imagine a not tense situation in the world, that they though world politics would come to an end. My generation can barely imagine tension as high as during the cold war. How lucky we are.
Bcoz..its the world
My teacher showed me your video a few years ago in early high school. One of the many history channels ive come to love
Conveniently left out our (UK) involvement in the Middle East and blame it all on the Americans. I like it :)
Mattyboy He even said we "lost" the Vietnam war, as if it were a military defeat. When in fact we just lost to much public support. I was cringing when he said we lost to Northern Vietnam, lol, cause we kicked their ass.
Mmmm nope... you lost.
jacobdot456 Emmm, no. We lost because we didn't complete our objective of keeping North Vietnam from forcing Communism on the South. Like in the Winter War in 1942 or Afghanistan in the 70s for the Soviets, they didn't successfully invade Finland or Afghanistan so they failed their mission. We lost Vietnam as the Ruskies lost in Afghanistan.
jacobdot456
Mmmm nope... you still LOST!

Why cant people differentiate between communsim and socialism, goddamnit.
+Wolfey The thing that is even more disconcerting is the fact that most people think communism and
capitalism are government types. Just ask some people on the streets what they are going to say about the UssR.
I mean it should be easy to determine a country...right? For example:
UssR 1950/ Government type: Socialism / Rulership: Dictatorship / Economy type: Communism
USA / Government type: Federalism / Rulership: Republic / Economy type: Capitalism
+Wysey isn't the US government's rulership a republic?
+Wysey also, the Founding Fathers hated the idea of democracy
+Eren Jaeger In fact, they actually attempted to reinstall a government much similar to the one Britian had used to control the 13 colonies.
in this case, it is the same
so they used other countries as their battle fields.million of people were killed only to prove who is better.while people in their own countries were enjoying their lifes drinking and clubbing.
they used other countries so ONLY millios would die and their would still be a world... if they hadnt then you wouldnt be here nor anybody for that matter
keith foy poor excuse.they should have kept their ideologies to themselfes.they killed millions of innocents for their personal benefits.
They are still doing it.
Look at Syria.
a KHADER dude it's those countries fault for LETTING them get involved and poor excuse? it's not an excuse but fact. if russia and Merica had gotten into a full war then even more lives would've been loss
keith foy they were in war they supported rebels and regimes and took damage from 1% to 50%.
this reminds me of black ops 1 campaign
Cringe
Thanks man I have a big test on this today and forgot to study
US deployed missiles in Turkey and then USSR deployed missiles in Cuba. why video said that USSR was the first ?

Antony D'Andrea why
the similarities with trump (eg. wanting to build a wall)
Fuck the wall, which he isn't gonna build anyway.
He is talking about proxy wars, fought indirectly by backing different sides.
Like the US and Russia are fighting right now in Syria.
Rsngamer
And who is gonna conduct this investigation?
Can't give it to a small country, not enough authority or resources for anyone to take their results seriously.
And all the bigger countries have already aligned themselves with either the US or Russia.
There is absolutely no way we are getting to the bottom of it.
That is the problem, you really can't hold either of them accountable.
Russia has nukes, but weak economy, so you can at least, occasionally, sanction them.
The USA is practically invincible.
0:09 North Korea was no soviet republic.
0:50 I understand, that you want this map to be colorful, but still it´s not fully correct: Austria, Sweden, Svizzerland, Ireland and Yugoslavia were neutral.
1:36 Thats way better, however I think Cuba should be red and south africa blue.
6:33 Omg, you really did not withhold it :O
You did a really awesome job at this video, it was great.
+The Hunt for Red October Actually North Korea was set up by the Soviet Union, and the reason for the collapse of NK's economy in the 1990s was because they no longer had the Soviets bankrolling them. As for Cuba, it was an American ally until July 1959, and that map is dated to 1959, so presumably he was just showing how things were immediately prior to the revolution. Also South Africa wasn't aligned to either side, so he is right to show them as neutral.
Theocook1 North Korea was and is a dictatorship, it was no "soviet republic", but socialist, just as for example East Germany. Only the members of the former Soviet Union were called soviet republics, not it´s allies.
Okay, I agree on Cuba :)
South Africa was especially because of its strict race distinction seen as an bastion against communism in africa, so the West clearly supported or at least tolerated its crimes.
Just taken another look at the map you were referring to with regard to North Korea. It's dated to 1945, at which point North Korea was not independent but under the occupation of the Soviet Army. That's why it's shown as part of the Soviet Union I think. As for South Africa, the west might have tolerated them due to the National Party's opposition to Communism, but I doubt they'd have ever referred to them as allies.
+Theocook1 Okay, North Korea was under occupation, therefore in my perception not part of the SU itself. Otherwise: Why is for example Japan not marked blue on the map? Nobody is perfect, this is no critique on the video, its just a detail we argue about, but still: This is not 100% coorect.
Actually I don´t want to search for articles online just to give you a source, however I´m very sure to have heard that South Africa was this "bastion against communism". Maybe not an "ally", but clearly a power the US felt pleasant about.
Yugoslavia was under soviet command until 1948, when Tito said "NO" to Stalin about his takeover of Yugoslavia. After 1948 Yugoslavia was left by Soviets. So this map at 0:50 is correct because it is the year 1946.
Good work! I was slightly surprised that the economic role of the Chernobyl NPP disaster of April 1986 wasn't mentioned. That single event cost the USSR approximately 18 billion rubles (which were at parity with the US dollar), and the "fallout," no pun intended, could be argued as one of the causes of the collapse of the Union. Not trying to start a fight or debate here, I just find the timing of the disaster, against everything else happening at the time, to be fascinating.
What a wonderful synthesis of the Cold war and all the details around it! You’ve no idea how much my comprehension about this important event in history was clarified after watching carefully nearly 4 different times….
I actually made up to extract the prints of every scene and charted it out in graphic software so I could better memorize the installments within this topic... I also set in chronological order all these extracted prints along with the transcription of your narration, in for of text...
God Bless you!
After the end of World War II, the world was split into two; East and West.

Great videos! For all the people demanding more videos and for Rud to upload them faster. You need to realize that he draws all of this, (computer animated or not), does all the research, commentates, and edits the video. I'm not sure if he was help with all this, either way, every video takes a very long time to make.
yup, it's all me! not to mention the down time after needed to clear my head and move onto the next project :D thanks for understanding ;)
btw THIS IS MY FAVOURITEST COMMENT EVERRRRRRR!!!
RudtheSpud thanks!!!
RudtheSpud Also, you think you can add more about Canada in these wars? In WWI for example, the war had a huge change on Canada and we finally became fully independent from Britain, because they no longer controlled our foreign affairs. Canada also got their own seat in the treaty of Versailles, instead of being represented by Britain. Idk if I just have a biased opinion from learning about the wars through Canadian school, but Canada did have a very huge importance. Particularly in The Battle of Vimy Ridge. The French had failed 3 times to try and capture Vimy Ridge, and they eventually gave up and let the Canadian troops have a shot at it. Led by Julian Byng, the Canadian force was able to swiftly take over Vimy Ridge with very little casualties on the first try. Again, not sure if this biased information, but it is accurate. So, please include my country, will ya? hahah
englandfootball8 Pretty sure if you speak the English language and have a basic comprehension understanding, you would be able to tell I said Canada became a fully independent nation including foreign affairs BECAUSE OF WWI

Exams tomorrow ffs
Thanks for this! My world history teacher in highschool was such a failure in teaching about the Cold War I never understood a single thing about this event.
I'd like to see your opinion on the "end of History", I believe the stagnation of politics has led directly to what we have now, controversial and previously abhorrent ideals and extremist thinking coming forward due to a perceived hatred of "the same old politics". This and previously unforseen consequences of the cold war (Al Quaeda leading to ISIS, Arab Spring, Iraq war and the rise of Putin) is driving history further forward.
It is indeed. I agree with you there! The swamp is stagnant...
John D Ruddy thanks for the reply! I do feel that rather than the famous "end of History", what we have ended up with is a whole new era altogether, which is only now beginning to reveal itself in a more understandable and recognisable way. That is not to say it's any more pleasant than the horrors of the past but as a history lover (previously student also) it is fascinating and whatever happens I do feel blessed to live in such historically interesting times.
kaledmasterme none of these events today compare to what we were dealing with back then. We just have way more media coverage

Do one on the French Revolution. Or the Napoleon wars
I'm not a fan of USSR or nor do I like it. I'm happy that USSR is no more, but we all have to agree that USSR was the Sparta of the modern age. What a badass state, one man controls such a badass empire, the most powerful military power in the world with the landmass bigger than some planets. Every factory was designed to change it's manufacturing goods to bullets and weapons within 2 days! Macaroni were 7.62×39mm EACH! The production from simple macaroni could be changed to Kalashnikov bullets within a day and that's only rifles. Every male Soviet citizen had to go through military training. I do admire the Army of USA , but it doesn't match what USSR had and in a war between the 2 (1 on 1) I bet the USSR would of won. You know why? Because Soviets were willing to sacrifice 50% of the entire population, but to stay free and in your case, you would beg for peace after the first dead million, do not even doubt that. Also Soviet military was way easier to produce and 4x times cheaper and at times 2x times better like tanks, rifles and planes. In terms of Navy US had the advantage to most of our Naval force until the "Akula class" . I mean google "Typhoon Submarine " .That was a beast. A true masterpiece of engineering.
Granted, administration in 70% of that "Landmass bigger then most planets" is pretty non existent...
Yeah, you know a country's badass when they've slaughtered millions...wait
+Kenny911able really? I'm confused? The Russain secret police killed over 20 million of their own people, they crushed opposition with an iron fist, as said in the video, and don't even get me started on what they did to the Afghans...
So watch you better watch your dozen brain cells, boy.
First of all russians are not badass, they are the same as anyone else the difference is they like to act the part. Second, russia was never once as militarily powerful as america. At any point in time, especially towards the end of the cold war, the US military completely outclassed the soviets.
And no, russians are not even close to tough enough as to sacrifice 50% of their population. They lost 20% in world war 2 and the only reason they sacrificed so much was they had a brutal dictator and also the germans were brutal invaders. If the Soviets declared war on the US they would not have been willing to fight nearly as hard.
Also the russians always had a struggling economy even in the early days of the cold war, compared to ours they were fucking broke. And money wins wars.
1. I'm not Russian but Ukrainian and I didn't say they are badass I said USSR was badass and evil
2.USSR did have a more powerful military, they had way more tanks, jets and helicopters and they were superior to US ones especially jets and tanks but the Navy was a bit behind (except for subs). It's just your opinion that US had a better military but it didn't. Every MALE was trained to be a soldier and most factories could be moved and changed to production of military equipment + USSR population was way bigger than the US one at the time by 100 million if not mistaken.
3.USSR economy and GDP were second after US and no sanctions could take them down. The reason why Soviet economy gone bad was because of Brezhnev which spent hundreds of billions on military which wasn't even used after alll
4.The Soviet military was the most powerful in the 70s and mid 80s and if I had to bet a fortune on who would win a non-nuclear war between the 2 I would definitely bet for USSR
5. Russia didn't win WW2 but SOviet Union did. Ukraine alone lost 5 million people and yet Russia somehow takes all the glory for taking Germany down.
Thank you so much mate for your content! I've learned much more from your videos than I have from my teachers. Keep up the great quality and unbiased content!
best thumbnail...
im offended with how the Philippines looks on this map (jk but it looks funny XD)
Hopefully on later maps I've drawn it looks better :D
It actually looks great!
Gassicus It looks like a d!c#
Could you make one about stuff we in the West are unaware of? Like the history of China, India, Meso-America etc
***** It's not very thoroughly taught in our schools.
***** I currently attend one of the finest high-schools in the western half of North Carolina, yet there lies in my mind a massive gap in my knowledge of Indian history between the founding of the first Indus river valley civilizations and the rise of the Mughal Empire, so, I don't know what to tell you.
***** India had history of Indus Civilization, several empires (Maurya, Mughal, etc) and being a colony of Britain and the aftermath of the colony which brings us to the Kasmir Conflict which is still happening. Little disappointment.
Also, India was VERY rich, it had a lot of diamonds, gold and treasures, which, was taken by the Britain.
***** You talk about it like it is awful to teach something like that.
Not we in the west, you in the west.
I clicked on this thinking it was going to be a fan made music video to "we didn't start the fire" by Billy Joel. stayed for the content. well done.
How about a history of the U.S. presidents in 10 to 20 minutes.
USA has no history
whad'ya mean?
brian sedlock Check his latest video
What's latest video?
brian sedlock The guy who created this video
Disinformation in this video:
5:05 Chile didn't actually vote for communism. Allende got 35% of the vote.
4:55 North Vietnam and the US signed a peace treaty.
6:26 Everyone armed the Mujahideen, but the main support came from Pakistan, another nuclear power.
1) No in everywhere someone needs to get more than 50% of the votes to be elected. There is simple majority too, that is, someone get elected by having most of the votes without needing to be more than 50% of the overall. 2) USA lost Vietnam war. Signing a peace treaty means that their objective failed. 3) Hillary Clinton stated that USA founded them to fight agaisnt the soviets and by the time she said it, she was an authority in the USA.
Subliminal the vietnam war was a political defeat for the US rather than a military defeat
Subliminal the US never created the Mujahideen. They just funded itm
Subliminal actually, the treaty’s terms were status quo ante bellum, or white peace, which is a defensive victory. Unfortunately the North violated the peace very soon afterwards.
Pixelated Viking thats really the same thing man. I know youre just gonna say Pakistan made the mujahedeen, they did, but it was all funded by America. Pakistan didnt really have any reason to create the mujahedeen.
I love how his Vietnam video is longer than his cold war video.
Yea my videos have been getting longer in general as the years have gone on
Yea my videos have been getting longer in general as the years have gone on
I learned more in this video than the past 6 months
SPOILERS! US lost the war...
Oh I forgot to put SR.
I don't think so ...find me a quote where Reagan assert that he bested the USSR ? Go on -I'll wait . USSR simply ended by series of internal problems caused by Mikhail relaxation of the totalitarianism program that kept the USSR glued ...The USA was simply a belligerent bystander .
Ussr didn't lose at all. There was a draw becouse nobody wanted for the world to end. Just becouse ussr failed to stay one after the war. Doesn't mean us won. Ussr ended after the cold war.
Wanna hear joke? USSR
@@lukaavaliani9294 that is illogical at best and propaganda at worst
Medical Division if it didnt lose then why the soiviet Union turn into Russia, then why Comuniusts countries dont talk about the cold war? Beside you have any proof or just talk randomly? Oh bro should move to North Korea and live a good life there
And again the U.S was the savior of the world and blablabla
And so the world is not ruled by Putin. Or Stalin. Or Donald trump
Wait
+Kulombus Productions Donald Trump !
+rhythm chaudhary The donald sucks
+Kulombus Productions Yeah I have to admit that what you said about USSR and modern Russia is true, but still, I posted this comment at first because I thought that the guy in the video was giving all the honor to the United States, almost saying that it was the country who had done evetything.
+Holster7 they weren't the saviors, they just win every time
actually russia has more missles than america
Άκης Τσιδαρ now they do but not back then
Άκης Τσιδαρ they only have a couple of hundred more ;)
D1n0 Fr0g it a 1000 more fuckturd
Άκης Τσιδαρ and more powerful ones
